2011 release. The Nighty Nite creates a tragic black comedy soundtrack to a meaningless existence, as if Woody Allen made a horror movie about a punk rock band. For the project, John Congleton, founding member of The Paper Chase and renowned recording engineer, and Jason Garner (The Paper Chase, The Polyphonic Spree, The Deathray Davies) enlisted members of Wires Under Tension (Chris Tignor), Shearwater (Kevin Schneider), and Hospital Ships (Jordan Geiger) for new project the nighty nite. Their debut EP echoes John Cale's sardonic mix of pop, orchestra, and skronk and the atmospheric doom of late-period Scott Walker.
